You have different methods to convert your old cassette tapes to MP3:

Use a professional cassette to MP3 conversion service

We recommend this option, as DIY methods are often slow and disappointing.

Here’s why MEDIAFIX is the best choice for you:

• Best price guarantee: We match competitors’ prices
• Professional service: Trained technicians will transfer your cassette to MP3 with professional equipment.
• Multiple storage options: You can save your MP3 files on a USB stick, CD, or even get the files as a direct download link.
• Easy process: You just need to send us an enquiry, fill out the order form and send us your audio tapes. We’ll take care of the rest.

Use a cassette to Mp3 converter

You need to buy a specific device to do it. Insert your cassette into the device, connect it to your computer, and record the audio as MP3. Even if this option is widely used, we advise against it because the sound quality is often basic.

Use a cassette deck

Do you still own a working cassette player? Then connect it to your computer’s sound card with a 3.5 mm or RCA cable. Next, use software to convert the old cassette to MP3. This process requires technical setup, and the quality depends on your equipment.

Use a Hi-Fi system

Even though they are rare, it is theoretically possible to transfer cassettes to MP3 with special stereo systems (they need to have a built-in cassette deck and allow you to save your cassette directly on a USB stick). We don’t recommend this option, as Hi-Fi systems are rare and expensive.

At MEDIAFIX, converting cassettes to MP3 is affordable: prices start from just £5.99 per audio cassette. Use our cassette to MP3 converter and benefit from our best price guarantee.

To convert cassettes to MP3 on a Mac you have two basic choices: do it yourself with a cassette player and recording software, or use a professional digitisation service like MEDIAFIX. Both options have their pros and cons. However, only a professional service can guarantee you high-quality results.

Let’s have a look at both options in more detail:

Transfer old cassettes yourself

You’ll need:

• Cassette deck or Walkman with an RCA connection or a headphone jack
• Cables (RCA stereo cable or a 3.5 mm male-to-male cable)
• Audio interface: since modern Macs don’t have a line-in jack, you’ll need a USB audio interface for your transfer. If you use a USB cassette converter, it will serve both as a deck and as the interface
• A MacBook
• Recording software, like Audacity or similar programs

Here are the steps to follow:

• Connect the deck’s output to the Mac’s audio input or USB interface with your cable
• Insert your tape
• Choose the external input
• Open the recording software
• Set the recording device to your external interface and choose a stereo input
• Press “Record” in your recording software and “Play” on the cassette deck to begin digitisation
• Press “Stop” after digitisation has been completed
• Export the file as an MP3 file and save it where you want: on your Mac, on a USB stick or upload it to the cloud

This method might seem the best option, but you’ll need to invest time and money to make it work. First of all, you’ll need to buy the equipment if you don’t already have it. Secondly, converting cassettes takes time because the process is done in real time. The MP3 file you get in the end might not be the best possible result because of incorrect settings.

Use a professional cassette to MP3 conversion service

The best way to convert cassettes to MP3 is to use a professional digitising service. The good news is that you won’t have to worry about buying outdated equipment or about making sure the quality of your audio files will be good enough. You’ll just need to follow these steps:

• Pack up your old cassettes in a sturdy cardboard box
• Send them to the MEDIAFIX logistics centre
• We’ll digitise them with our in-house equipment to guarantee you a good transfer
• Your converted cassettes will be delivered as MP3 files on a USB stick
• Need your media faster? Get them back via a direct download link
• Now, you can relive your precious memories anytime!

Yes, at MEDIAFIX, your audio cassette labels are transferred for free onto the MP3 files, up to a maximum of 20 characters per cassette.

What does this mean exactly? If your audio tape has a handwritten or printed title, we’ll use it as the name of the corresponding MP3 file. This way, it’s much easier to organise and play the files once they’re digitised.

Yes, we can fix torn tape. For a small additional fee of £15.00 per cassette, our technicians will repair up to three tears in the tape. The repair is carried out carefully so that the tape can be played smoothly again for transfer, with no decrease in the quality of the digitised MP3 file.

Yes, at MEDIAFIX you’ll get both the original audio tapes and your digitised MP3 files back. The digitised files will be saved on a USB stick.
